Feeling unhinged, completly bonkers, deranged and detaced.
Questions and thoughts runing brain like wild horses.
Take out the door of doubt and, you are left with.
An exclamation mark!
It’s all in the details, ha de Gött!
Unhinged

Purple Haze
I saw this purple field and first believed it was lavender. It’s was not.
This beautiful plant Phacelia tanacetifolia is known by several common names, lacy phacelia, tansy-leaf phacelia, blue tansy, purple tansy or fiddleneck. It’s used as a biological pest control agianst aphids as it attracts hoverflies. It’s also a fertiliser to the soil.
Useful beauty, ha de Gött!
Gone fishing
I always win going fishing.
Happiness if I catch any fish.
If I don’t, no need to clean it.
Carpe diem, ha de Gött!
Landmark cranes
Last dockside cranes standing as a landmark for the shipyard era in the city of Göteborg, Sweden. At its peak 1950 there was over 200 cranes in the harbour of Göteborg. Today the future of these landmarks of Sweden as a leading shipbuilding nation is uncertain.
The new landmarks looks different like the Karla Tower with the nickname “The Zipper”. It is a symbol for the transformation of the shipyards to offices and housing for the high tech companies and the universities.
Change is inevitable, ha de Gött!
Mustasch
One of my favourite metal bands came to our little town, Grebbestad, and I got the opportunity to take some photos of them. A bit of a challenge in the headbanging crowd.
The band Mustasch started in 1998 in Göteborg and the name is allegedly coming from the fact that the bands role models had a moustaches, like Freddy Mercury in Queen. With over 10 albums the band has a growing audience in Scandinavia and north Europe. They are available on Spotify and YouTube.
The thing I like with their music is the raw but melodic music with heavy guitar riffs. The lyrics are worth listing to.
Rock on, ha de Gött!
Shadows
The crown of Gods creation
inventing smarter and smarter ways
to manifest our stupidity
living as there is no tomorrow
still we exist by the grace
of Sun and Mother Nature
we are merely shadows
fading in to the night
Skuggor
Kronan av Guds Skapelse
uppfinner smartare och smartare sätt
att minifestera vår dummhet
lever utan tanke på en morgondag
existerar med godheten av
Solen och Moder Natur
vi är endast skuggor
suddas ut i natten
Don’t look up, ha de Gött!
Sail away
One of those photos when you’re in the right spot at the right moment with the right light.
Just get out there, ha de Gött!
Yellow
Blooming rapeseed field in the summer evening.
Ha de Gött!
Baker street view
When Sherlock had to go do elementary things he’d pass this view.
Even great men have to do small things, ha de Gött!
Hot London and Shakespeare
Just got back from a few days’ vacation in a record-hot London. The main focus was to celebrate my 60:th birthday with my family, not to take photos. Still, I managed to capture a few, even if conditions was not optimal. Temperatures between 30 and 35°C and clear skies with razor-sharp light.
I took this after attending the Shakespeare play “Much Ado About Nothing” at Shakespeare Globe Theatre. It’s a challenge to read Shakespeare when English is not your native language and, even more so watching a play performed without any technical support like mics or speakers. The actors were brilliant, articulate and projected their voices beautifully, so after a few minutes I settled into that special Shakespeare flow.
Speak low if you speak love, ha de Gött!
